Invaders! 1.2 This is an Arcade Game Mactivity's CD-ROM nr 10 advice: This application did run on a b/w 68030 processor under System 7.1. It was also tested on a big ColorScreen of a PowerMacintosh running System 7.1.2. The game was also tested on a Quadra with 68040 processor and a 13 inch Color Screen and System 7.1 by Mactivity. This is the third "real" program I wrote for Mac and the first colour one. Two years ago I wrote a "serious" computer music program for an exam (I am studying electronic engineering in Padova, Italy). Later I wrote a simple game for my 4-years old daughter (now six-years old) : Babylabyrinth. In the following period I was very busy with my studies, so I had no time for programming. About two months ago I downloaded SAT tool kit by Ingemar Ragnemalm (thank you Ingemar!), it is a sprites library to simplify writing games, and with it I found a invaders demo, eventually when I had some days (and nights) free I worked on it and I turned it in a complete game. Invaders! is the result. It is a classic Invaders game, close to the original arcade game, the second game I played to years and years ago (the first one was BreakOut) with some small additions. I know that exist at least three others invaders games: "Slime Invaders" by Ingemar Ranglemalm (a strange and funny invaders game, but far from the classical one), "SpaceInvader!" by Hui Dong, far from the classical one too (the problem is that this one it don't run on my powerbook because of the screen size) and a "space-invaders-da", a nice classical invaders game, with a small window.
